Yeah, I don't think the X server reacts with the appropriate level of scorn when the system clock tells it that time is running backwards. This isn't an xterm bug. It's an X server bug. It's also been fixed in XFree86 CVS. http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/cvs-commit/2001-October/003129.html 338. Modified GetTimeInMillis() to handle non monotonous system clocks (Egbert Eich). Thanks for the report. -- G. Branden Robinson | You live and learn. Debian GNU/Linux | Or you don't live long. [EMAIL PROTECTED] | -- Robert Heinlein http://people.debian.org/~branden/ |
